Tip: Don't mention you're using a wide angle lens to the wife ;)

Sounds like the username / password for your incoming server is wrong.

+1 for file zilla :) Use it at home and work, as do most of the others at work (a web application / development company).

Same here. I'm not a fan of flash.

Thanks very much, I work for a company but do the odd site or two outside of work.

Same goes for me. I'm a web developer by trade. Here's a very basic website which I coded for myself - http://www.stephenhoultphotography.co.uk and I'm sure I could help you out in one way or another. Just give me a PM if you're interested.

I never thought of entering the addresses manually, I guess I like things to be done automatically where possible. So if you want to add the addresses of the images to your webpage manually you'll be able to do that and use lightbox, to pull the addresses/images from flickr automatically...

You'd need to be able to somehow pull the images from flickr into your site, format them, add a link and apply the lightbox tag. The easiest way I saw was to parse the flickr image set RSS feed. Unfortunately to parse the RSS feed you'd need to make use of a scripting language, such as PHP...

Lightbox doesn't, download the lightbox js files, upload them to your webspace. Add a link to the lightbox files into the head section of your webpage. Add rel="lightbox" into your <a> tag around each image . Mine looks like this: In the head section <link rel="stylesheet"...

Thanks, next time I'll use some tissue paper as a diffuser and see what happens - the image above is basically a halogen desk lamp with no diffusion at all.

Well I had a go and this is what I ended up with.

Thanks, I'll give it a go tonight and see how I get on.

Hey I'm interested in taking some low key photos similar to the one on this link. Obviously I need a single light source off to the side of the object I'm photographing. I'd start off with it at a 45 degree angle and seee how it looks and move it closer to a 90 degree angle to get the desired...

Of course they do, they have to justify paying hundreds of pounds extra for a shiney case with a picture of an apple on it somehow.

The site seems to be working well in most browsers now. It looks ever so slightly different in IE6, but if you never saw it in another browser you wouldn't think it doesn't look quite as it should.
